2/ Worrell was in Forgiato Blow's cringeworthy "We Outside" music video, filmed during the siege (left)
Casting beautiful shade, the @FBI used a still from video in the charges..to ID the brand of pepper spray Worrell used (right).
Wild story: Meet Kurt Jantz (rap name Forgiato Blow aka 'Donald Trump's Nephew').
By his telling, he's the grandson of Auto Trader's founder.
Jantz flew to DC in a private jet on January 6th... 1/

3/ Interesting: the charges feature impressive OSINT work by @FBI agent(s) to demonstrate that Worrell's pepper spray was indeed aimed at police.
Charges: https://assets.documentcloud.org/documents/20512572/christopher-worrell.pdf
4/ Continuing the theme of #ProudBoys obsession with law enforcement... except when they are assaulting them.
Worrell likes the police so much he impersonated one. Then got caught & hit with a felony charge.
5/ Worrell flashed a badge & pulled a woman over with his Hummer.
She was an emergency dispatcher & knew he was a fake cop.
When he was arrested he was found with a Glock, handcuffs, a badge, knives and... pepper spray.

Danielle Bower told deputies that she was traveling west on U.S. 41 East shortly after 8 p.m. when she drove through a yellow light at the intersection at Guilford Road. She noticed a silver Hummer make a U-turn at Guilford and accelerate through the intersection, running the red light.
The Hummer pulled up alongside Bowers vehicle as she headed west on U.S. 41 East. The driver, Worrell, showed her a gold badge and signaled for her to roll down her window. Bower, who works as a CCSO emergency dispatcher, told deputies that she did not recognize the badge.
Worrell began yelling at Bower, telling her that she ran the red light.
Bower told Worrell that if she ran the red light, then he did too. She told deputies that he Worrell said that he is allowed to run red lights, to catch up to people like you.
Worrell then pulled the Hummer behind her vehicle, leading her to suspect he was a law enforcement officer about to pull her over.
She turned north on Airport-Pulling Road follo

She turned north on Airport-Pulling Road followed by Worrell in the Hummer. She made a U-turn at the intersection of Airport-Pulling Road and Davis Boulevard, pulling into a pizzeria parking lot. Worrell proceeded west onto Davis Boulevard.
Deputies spotted Worrell driving the Hummer east on Davis near Airport-Pulling shortly before 9 p.m. Deputies conducted a traffic stop and arrested him.
A search of the Hummer turned up:
* A gold Florida concealed firearms badge
* A loaded .40 caliber Glock with a bullet in the chamber
* Three Glock magazines
* Two pairs of handcuffs and keys
* 100 extra rounds of .40 caliber ammunition
* Multiple 12-gauge shotgun shells
* Two pocket knives
* Flashlight
* A can of pepper spray
6/ Here is Worrell last December in DC in a Trump Pence shirt sounding off menacingly about "ice cream sandwiches"

What was the pepper spray for? To immobilize a victim so they weren't moving when he pumped 20 rounds into them?
Guy is quite the piece of work.

(47,399 posts)routine, he was not in jail. "Supervision"? He sounded like a very dangerous person, who shouldn't have been on the streets.

(64,995 posts)...is an absolute example of dangerous!
I agree, he should be in jail, not out on bond!

What a vile piece of work. A decade or so in the slammer for assaulting a police officer should knock him down a peg or two.
Goddamned creep.

(2,690 posts)I will feel comforted to know when he is behind bars and for how long he will remain locked up. Goes for all the murderous, racist, pro-Nazis. They are all, all of them, bad people capable of evil acts, unspeakably evil acts, in the name of the master race.
Of course, in prison they will be surrounded by other Neo-nazis and welcomed to that family. But even if doughy Oompa-loompas like Worrell get comfortable in prison (doing porridge* in U.K. prison argot!) and gets out after doing 5, at least thatll be 5 years when society wont have to worry about him.
*At least according to google. But it makes a kind of hazy sense, doesnt it, envisioning prison food as, essentially, an endless tray of oatmeal?

Idiots like these are known as Blue Light Bandits.
Claire Oh Nette
(2,636 posts)When I was 17 and started driving, my mom warned me. If I was ever being followed, or even thought I was, go to a public, well lit place, preferably the Police station.
I told Mr. Oh Nette that as a woman, I'd allow a police chase before I ever let one pull me over in an isolated, dark area. I'd take the evading arrest or whatever to be sure I wasn't going to be shanghai-ed. The odds of something like that are infinitesimally small, sure, but the fear of sexual assault, or worse, is deep seated in us women folk.
Unconscionable scumbags self identifying.

(12,421 posts)It shocked me that Florida issues badges for concealed-carry permit holders but turns out that's not the case. These are sold by private companies and they should be illegal because they are tantamount to impersonating law enforcement.

(38,601 posts)Yeah thats pretty impersonatey
Claire Oh Nette
(2,636 posts)He's a threat to women and law enforcement everywhere.
He masqueraded as a cop to pull women over. What cop caries hundreds of rounds? He's a violent, angry man.
If he has a prior felony, from 2010, then he didn't vote in this election. He tried to overthrown a government he can't vote for because the guy he identifies with, the sexual predatory, racist, sexist, lying, cheating, conman, lost.
So afraid of Black people in leadership (and they give it away with the whole Biden will resign after six months and they'll install Kamala nonsense) they'll Jim Crow the elections and ignore results they don't like. So afraid of Democrats coming for their guns (Clinton, then Obama, then Hilary, now Biden...) that they're volunteering to relinquish both their rights to bear arms and their right to vote.
Charge every one of them with felony murder. Even in the plea bargains to come for those who flip, they forfeit their right to Vote forever.
P.S. The only part of the ice cream sandwich worth a damn IS the middle.

edit - the incident with the impersonation and harassment of a young woman occurred in 2010 and had nothing to do with his being arrested
Original reply (incorrect) - At the corner of Airport Road & US-41 where he turned to follow his current victim, is our county's government center; the CCSO, jail, courthouse, human services, and even a museum are there. This is an obvious pattern of behavior for him to harass people.
Where the raid occured is uncertain - some reports state the raid was at a home he shares with a woman friend, while others report the raid occurred at a home owned by an executive assistant at Naples Daily News. The two homes are a short drive apart.
Worrell had previously dined with Proud Boys Founder Enrique Tarrio at The Mercado in Naples earlier this year and was recognized by officials through photos of that Proud Boys meeting.
